You left me
with a smile,
not just
the silly school girl kind
I'm on cloud nine
in seventh heaven type,

but rather the one
that's more something like
the one that lingers long
after the moment
is here and gone

and has then been
tucked away
into the everafter of
cherished memories hold

soft...

subtle...

so very bold...

oh, time tick tocks;
it ticks away

but that smile?

This smile..

will never fade.

{Five hundred twenty five thousand
six hundred minutes
five hundred twenty five thousand
moments to dear
five hundred twenty five thousand
six hundred minutes
how do you measure - measure a year?

In daylights-in sunsets
in midnights-in cups of coffee
in inches- in miles
in laughter- in strife

In five hundred twenty five thousand
six hundred minutes
how do you measure
the year in a life }

Oh, yeah, I remember, now, how that song from "Rent" went (Big Smiles) and I really enjoyed your versed meditation on the lingering thoughts that you have toward that special one in your life's smile

Thanks for sharing.
